1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Considering its frequency, high mortality rate as well as many etiological mysteries colorectal cancer is a challenge to contemporary science. In our study we analyzed RER + and RER--phenotypes and their relations with clinical-pathological characteristics of sporadic colorectal cancers. We also analyzed genetic alterations of tumor suppressor genes as well as their relation with microsatellite instability. The study was based on 54 tumor samples and 54 samples of the surrounding healthy tissue of patients with colorectal cancer. According to Amsterdam Criteria and Bethesda Criteria 35/54 or 64,81% belonged in the group of sporadic colorectal cancer. Mononucleotide marker Bat 25 showed instability in 48,57%; Bat 26 in 45,71% and Bat 40 in 29/35 82,86% of tumor samples. Considering dinucleotide markers, TP 53 showed instability in 54,29% and DS123 in 37,14% of tumor samples. Genetic alterations in tumor suppressor genes were found in tumor tissue: NM 23 in 54,29% samples, p53 in 51,43%, APC in 51,43%, DCC2 in 34,29%, RB1 in 22, 86% and DCC 1 in 28,57%. Our studies confirmed that genetic instability had an important role in the development of tumor type. Our results showed that mononucleotide marker Bat 40 might be used for an easy and fast screening procedure in Bosnian population, because it exhibited high percent of microsatellite instability and was in relation with RER+ phenotype. This investigation showed that different genetic alterations may occur during cancer development in each individual patient's tumor. These changes result in MMR inactivation, which causes RER+ phenotype. Our results suggest a connection between alteration in some tumor suppressor genes and MSI phenotype of sporadic colorectal cancer in Bosnian population.
